Thank god Mixmaster and Hound aren't in the pool, but I just hope Prowl or Optimus Primal will be my first 5* bot.
I absolutely can't wait to get T3CS crystal shards from the raid store, that's a great move, that'll benefit those who aren't lucky enough to pull the essence from Map 3 crystals
Any chance AE rewards, such as raid ascent are getting updates too? Considering that you'll get shards from just opening bots 300 4* shards for 300k top milestone reward really won't feel like a reward.
Will there be updates to AM rewards sub 21 map 3 lvl. Given we will be able to pick up t2a and t3b in raid? Whats to keep some guys in AM if the raid store rewards are sufficient and priced right?
@Kabam Miike What was the process for choosing which bots were going to be the first 5* bots? I notice a lot of the top performing bots weren't chosen and most are very good bots but they're very middle of the road. No criticism intended as I'm very excited for these.

I agree. I was hoping for a better lineup. But they must have their reasons

A better line up? You shouldn’t be expecting god tier bots like OG/MV1 Prime or Ratchet or OG Megatron that would be gamebreaking. I was surprised to see many powerful bots such as ROTF Megatron, Shockwave, Drift, etc. Pool is completely perfect, plus all the bots there have synergy with each other

I still say they compiled a list of bots nobody uses except as base defenders and gave us them. When is the last time you raided and didn't see 2-4 of the listed bots as defenders.

What’s so great about this pool is that all the bots there have synergy with each other so you can make a good 5* team, like Megatron, grindor, Barricade. Arcee, UM, prowl.

AM in my opinion seems completely obsolete now,.... the rewards simply don't justify the amount of planning, coordinating and commitment (weekends/times for me). I would have loved to see other type of game modes aside from simply higher difficulties and higher tier bots (5*). I will certainly be taking a break from AM but will give the new content a chance,..again,... a lot of players are really craving something different to do in game like alliance wars or maybe even a co op story mode (like AM but with just 2-3 players and able to select 5 bots per member).

The only good thing about AM now for me is fun and some T3C shards, but you’d have to be at high am levels to get decent amounts of T3C

Rotf Megatron is on 75+% of bases raid defense (just like wasp, motor, & grin), primal is becoming more and more popular, drift and shock wave aren't as common, but I think that's because people don't see them as worth the effort as defenders (like arcee)
Revenge of the King question. Will direct damage sources (bleed, shock, dark burn etc) contribute to the 500 damage threshold or is it just hit damage?

This will have a massive impact on bot choice.
The only one you list that will come close to 500 damage is dark burn, and I suspect no since the heavy will knock a stack off. But even if it did, it's too hit or miss to matter. I've NEVER seen a bleed or shock stack even close to 500 per tick.

Please do not forge 4*s! It is way to early for that
Is there any plans for including 5* shards in the crystal bounty arena ?
It would be great to see maybe 250 shards in the final milestone, but you could count 4* shards since new or duped bot gives 500 shards
Sorry man, we won’t get shrads

Drift
Megatron
Primal

Rotf Megatron isn’t used? Drift isn’t used? Optimus Primal isn’t used? Post buff shockwave isn’t used?

I don’t think so? If your four star isn’t stronger than your 5 star, why rank the four star even more? At least that’s the way I see it.

I’m in the same boat, devastating head shots. Only problem is she isn’t my playstyle
